  1. Weeeeeeeeeird. It did NOT work in 1+2 or 2+4 BUT it works just fine in Dual Channel in Slots 2+3 (A2 and B1). I don't understand it at all but I'm glad it works somehow lol. May I ask what the "DC Mode" is? Is it ok if its unengaged?
  2. I have them in the configuration of (1) -> Slots A1 and B1. I will test if I get the same Problem with (2) later in Slots A2 and B2.
  3. I tested Slots 1+3 and it only gives me Single Channel (both Sticks switched same) I may test Slots 2+4 later then.
  4. Yes, it's 64Bit Sorry for German again.
  5. Hello first of all I just discovered I have a Problem and need some tips or fixes, thought of coming here. Problem: I have 2 x 4GB Sticks of Crucial Ballistix RAM and recently noticed I only get 4GB when I checked in Taskmanager. CPU-Z shows that 8GB are build in the System but that it is in Single Channel Mode. I noticed it when extracting a .zip file and my YouTube Video started stuttering. It hasn't always been like this, I remember seing 8GB and everything was fine. PC Specs: Windows 7 SP1 Professional NVidia GTX 550Ti Cyclone II AMD Athlon II X4 630 @ 2.80GHz (not OC) 2x4GB DDR3-1333 Crucial Ballistix RAM ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 Motherboard SandDisk 240GB SSD Noname 500W PSU What I've Tried: -I have been looking everywhere in the BIOS to change the RAM settings to Dual Channel but couldn't find anything -Checking the RAM Slots individualy: So it works in Slots 1+3 with both Sticks Only. I also switched them -> Both Sticks work, but only Single Channel = 4GB Then I tried every Slot with 1 Stick only and NO Slot worked. I included some Pictures of my BIOS and my Taskmanager (Sorry that it is german) I fear that either my Motherboard (relativly new ~1year) or my CPU (dunno how old, boought used in PC) is broken, what do you guys think? Thanks for your Help in advance and greetings from Germany! ~Nupid
